Opiates

Methadone is stronger than oxycodone by up to 5 to 8 times depending on individual differences. Methadone can be used for pain but the typical doses of methadone for narcotic withdrawal are less than would be used for pain. One word of caution, methadone has a longer withdrawal cycle than oxycodone and can last up to two weeks. If the intention is getting off the oxys I would suggest suboxone. Getting off of methadone can be much more difficult than getting off oxys. Having said that, Methadone can work quite well for people with chronic IBS where other anti-diarrheals do not work. Methadone can turn into a life long maintenance, so you should very carefully weigh the alternatives, and if the only alternative is Methadone, then God help you and best of luck. If there are any other alternatives other than methadone, try that first. Methadone should only be the very last resort. Methadone will not provide the long term euphoria that oxys provide. So if the intent is recreational use, you will soon lose the euphoric feeling but still experience withdrawals which by many accounts is far worse than oxys. Methadone is not well suited for recreational use, so if that is the root of the question, do not take it, or you will be sorry. If it is the last resort, it can be a life saver.

It can and it is listed as one of the mild side effects of the drug.

Side effects include Blurred vision; dizziness; drowsiness; eye redness or irritation; fever; headache; hives; lightheadedness; nasal stuffiness; nausea.

To pass an opiod drug test start drinking a gallon of water over a 12 hour period leading up to the test urinate as much as possible and you will secrete pure water into the cup. my military friends have used this . also add lemons and make sure the water is warm.

Prob about 24 hour's because it only has 2mg of the blocker 8mg suboxone has 4mg of blocker so 8mg about 36 hours

cocaine is classed as a stimulent, not an opiate. It is not derived from opium and does not posess the correct chemical structure to be classed as an opiate. Therefore i would imagine it would not be detected as an opiate in a drug screen

The short answer is: It depends on the strength and amount and type of Opiate you are taking. If you are on Methadone you are in for a rough ride. If you are hooked on Vicodin, or hydrocodone you can start as soon as you feel a bit rough, that being said talk to a doctor or someone who has been in your situation.

Dilaudid will show up as an opiate on a standard five panel drug screening - people get this confused and say that it will NOT show up on a 5 panel they are half correct NO - The test result will not say "Dilaudid Positive" it will however say "OPIATE POSITIVE" they dont care what kind of opiate you used, if your not supposed to be using that drug then you will fail, lets say your getting tested for a job and you have a script for another drug that will trigger a OPIATE POSITIVE result, then you can tell your job before hand that you are on X drug and show them your script, now the company may or may not want to do further testing to see what all opiates you are on - this costs a lot more money for the company paying for your drug screening so they probably will NOT - but its totally up to the company hier. Good news is that if you can put 3 or more clean days between you and your drug screening you will more then likely pass - in my case i passed a 5 panel pre-employment drug screening 70 hours after using, and i had been using every day for over a year. hope this helps...

methadone does not show up as an "opiate" on a drug test. It is an opiate, but it is sythentically different from other opiates and will not show up on a drug test as an opiate.

Methadone has to be specifically tested for as methadone. With methadone abuse on the rise, alot of places have gone ahead and added it to the list of substances tested for so I wouldn't take a chance on it not be discovered.

However, methadone clinics, when testing to see if you are taking your methadone properly will not only be looking for active methadone in the urine, but also methadone metabolite which shows that your body processed the methadone. This prevents someone from just putting a bit of methadone in their urine because this manner doesn't provide methadone metabolites.

For all type of drugs standard detection time for hair test is 90 days (if you hair grows up slowly , possible extra 10-12 days). If they collect hair from the body (hair on the head is under 1-1,5 inches) detection can go up to 1 year (body hair grows up much slower ). Standard is 90 days because Labs use first 1,5 inch of hair (close to the scalp) for testing.

Yes, Fentanyl will show up if they ask the lab to look for it or drugs of its category (opiates).

I don't know how it would. Trazodone mainly an anti-depressentt. It's not a narcotic. They can be used for anxiety and can have a calming, slightly tranquilizing effect. So where they may have the same calming effect, they're completely different drugs.

Depending on the drug that is causing withdrawal symptoms, many medications and therapies can be used.

FOR HEROIN WITHDRAWAL: the drug clonidine is often used to reduce the effects of heroin withdrawal, or withdrawal from opiate drugs in general, Clonodine reduces blood pressure, and takes the "edge" off . Methadone is another drug used, but only in clinical settings (a detox or hospital) as it is a controlled substance itself- a synthetic opiate. (man made as opposed to the plant "poppies" used to create heroin) It is widely used as a "taper", the patient is started off on a certain amount of methadone according to how much heroin or opiate the person was abusing, and they are brought down slowly, often with other medications such as the aforementioned clonidine to make the withdrawal tolerable.

FOR ALCOHOL WITHDRAWAL: Alcohol withdrawal is incredibly dangerous as opposed to heroin or opiate withdrawal which is horrific in nature but not physically life threatening. Librium is used commonly in a clinical setting (detox or hospital) and used in large amounts if the patient has been drinking heavily and for a long time, This prevents life threatening seizures that can occur from alcohol withdrawal.

FOR BENZODIAZEPINE WITHDRAWAL: benzodiazepines are a class of controlled substance. The most common are Valium, Ativan, and Klonopin. Some are long acting, some are short acting. All are physically addictive and can be life threatening when stopped without a taper.

In a clinical setting (hospital or detox) benzodiazepines such as Ativan are often used to "taper" the patient slowly , so the withdrawal is not as unpleasant as withdrawal from benzodiazepines can cause seizures, visual and auditory hallucinations, panic attacks and rapid heartbeat,

COCAINE WITHDRAWAL: most of the time a patient is simply monitored for cocaine withdrawal as it is not physical in nature, but rather psychological. The intense craving for the drug causes agitation, panic attacks, irrational thinking, and sometimes does require medication such as small amounts of a sedative to relax the patient.

SMOKING/TOBACCO WITHDRAWAL: there are many different smoking cessation aides on the market, and some are over the counter, some are by prescription only.

Transdermal nicotine patches are the most popular, and seem to help the smoker with the withdrawal effects such as irritability, intense craving for the cigarette, etc,

Other types of nicotine products such as inhalers and lozenges are also available.

Recently, the release of "electronic cigarettes" which emit a vapor that does have nicotine in it but not tobacco or real smoke in them has scores of people quitting smoking. The electronic "cigarette" mimics the process of smoking right down to the feeling of smoke going into the mouth and nose, and exhaling- but it is vapor, not smoke that is being used, E-cigarettes, as they are called, have cartridges that are refillable and contain various types of liquid that mimic the patients favorite brand of cigarette.

*drug withdrawal of any kind, including from legal, prescribed medication is a serious issue and should be discussed with one's doctor! Everyone is different in their response to withdrawal, and it's better to be informed and let your doctor know you are stopping a medication or drug- legal OR illegal. Doctors do not judge- and if they DO then it's time to find another doctor!!!!

Any hospital in your area (the ER) is absolutely responsible for finding you a treatment center if you are asking for help for your addiction. They CANNOT refuse you, no matter how long it takes or whether you have insurance or not!!!

That's a good question.

Morphine is a chemical that when used by a doctor or nurse to treat a patient, is a MEDICINE.

If a person uses the chemical morphine illegally, then morphine is a DRUG.

Whether morphine is a medicine or a drug depends on a person's point of view and circumstances. All can agree that it is a chemical though.

The nervous system produces its own version of morphine. (endorphins, dynophins, enkephalin, etc.) These intrinsic opiates act at different opiate receptors(mu, beta, and kappa receptors). Extrinsic opiates, like morphine, also fit into these receptors and result in the same effects as intrinsic body opiates.(morphine's pain relieving effects are mostly due to interaction with the mu opiate receptor). Hope that helps

Unfortunately, as far as I know, there is no such thing. I've done research on it. If you think about it, if you do ANYthing for an extended amount of time that makes you feel good, you will become addicted to it. You're using/doing something that your brain finds rewarding. Anything could be used as a "crutch." Anything from shopping, to sex, to food. Anyway, I've tried finding the same thing. I wish there was, that would be amazing. In my opinion, they need to invent a pill like that ASAP.

no morphine does not show up in a hair follicle test

Yes, any basic drug tests test for "opiates" and will detect morphine. Opiates are one of the "SAMHSA-5". The five drugs tested for in the standard NIDA approved drug test- urine, hair or saliva.

Tramadol is a synthetic opiate, albeit a minor one. Wellbutrin isn't - it's an anti-depressant.

Noop.

Two completely different chemicals, not even in the same class or category.

Yes, but always check with your doctor before taking any medications.

yes loratab and percocet are opates unless you have a 10 pannel drug test they will check for barbituates witch is "pills" if its a simple 5 panel test they probley will just check for opiates witch loratab comes back as.

Noop. Methylphenidate is in a class of chemicals with stimulant properties. Very similar actions to amphetamines.

No.
